BLONI
“I don't design for gender or convention—I design for the evolving human identity, where craftsmanship becomes the language of the future.”
— Akshat Bansal. BLONI is a pioneering Indian luxury fashion label redefining the future of contemporary design through innovation, craftsmanship, and radical self-expression. Founded in New Delhi by designer Akshat Bansal, the brand challenges traditional notions of fashion by exploring the evolving relationship between identity, anatomy, technology, and culture. Recognised for its sculptural silhouettes, experimental textiles, and gender-agnostic philosophy, BLONI creates garments that exist beyond convention. Every collection is a dialogue between heritage and futurism—where Indian craftsmanship is reimagined through progressive design and a distinctly global perspective. Rather than designing for trends, BLONI creates wearable concepts that question how clothing can shape the future of fashion.
Designer Akshat Bansal grew up surrounded by India's rich textile heritage, spending his early years immersed in traditional handloom fabrics at his family's textile business in Hisar. This deep appreciation for craftsmanship later evolved through formal education at the prestigious Central Saint Martins in London and further refinement during his apprenticeship on Savile Row, where precision tailoring and construction became integral to his creative language.
Today, BLONI bridges these two worlds—honouring India's artisanal legacy while pioneering a bold vision of contemporary luxury. Akshat approaches fashion as a platform for cultural dialogue, believing that clothing should transcend gender, geography, and convention. His work continuously explores the fluidity of identity, the politics of the body, and the possibilities of unexpected material innovation. Traditional craft techniques are reinterpreted through experimental construction, advanced textiles, and architectural silhouettes, creating collections that feel simultaneously timeless and futuristic. For Akshat, fashion is not simply an object of beauty—it is a living system that evolves alongside the people who wear it. Every garment invites individuality, freedom of expression, and a new way of understanding luxury through inclusivity, innovation, and craftsmanship. On LUMEME, BLONI represents the next generation of global luxury designers—where Indian heritage, experimental design, and visionary craftsmanship converge to shape the future of fashion.
